Former President George H.W. Bush jumped out of a plane today to mark his 85th birthday. It wasn't the first time the older Bush had marked a birthday this way. He celebrated his 75th birthday in 1997 with a jump over Yuma, Arizona.
After he landed, Bush told the press, "You feel exhilarated. You get charged up and excited. That's not easy to do at 85."
Also at the scene was a casual looking George W. Bush. After being urged by the press, he came over and remarked that his dad's feat was "awesome." He also made a joke that his father had thrown up his breakfast while in the air.
